Not pictured is a 2008 Taylor 110 acoustic, Squier Precision Bass, Sitar, Mandolin, Uke, Florida nylon strung acoustic (my first guitar ) and a Marlin Strat copy which was my first electric that I got when I was about 12. It used to have a black body, but one summer break from school I got bored and went a bit stars and stripes MC5 style with it

I do have a bit of an unsatisfied ache for a Ricky bass, although I think buy one of them is a few years off as I really do need to move and make some room for all my music bits and pieces. I would also love a Country Gent or a White Falcon as it was the WF that first really made me want to play guitar and for me, still remains the 'ultimate' desirable guitar.

I'm a firm believer that adulthood is a chance for you to have the things you wanted when you were a kid. I don't have, or want, children, but I always wanted great guitars, and now I'm definitely a GAS sufferer. I always want to buy one, and say I'll p/x or sell one of the others to pay for it, but it never happens like that. I can never say 'goodbye' to them! Once I can add a Country Gent or the White Falcon, then the collection if complete.

It doesn't have to be an original for me - happy with something with a few miles on the clock and suitably broken in. The other thing I would have liked, is a guitar from the year I was born, 1976. I thought it would be quite cool to age with something at the same time.

Very nice!Is that third one a Godin? I had one of those but in a dark blue flame effect. It was a lovely guitar, very versatile and great to play, but it wasn't really me so I got rid of it and got myself a Gibson SG.

Thanks, Peter. I'm having a great time with my 1963 Country Gentleman plugged into this amp! I was fortunate to find this model as it was discontinued about a year and a half ago. It was VOX's reissue of the original early 1960s VOX AC30 amplifier with two 12" Celestion “Blue” AlNiCo speakers as used in the original AC30 combo.

So Kevin, the ToneLab is currently tucked away in my closet as I get familiar with this new amp. Are you enjoying your ST?
